“Mike takes the reader through his battle with alcoholism and shares the insights gained from more than 50 years of sobriety. The book is written in a way that any person can appreciate. Alcoholics at any stage of their lives, family members, coworkers and friends of alcoholics and people dealing with similar ailments and addictions will find support and understanding.
Mike reveals that if he can help just one person it will be worth breaking anonymity and writing the book. I'm sure that Mike will succeed far beyond his dream.”
